Don't let your deafness hold you back. If you can hear and feel music, then you should be able to do fine.

I know a lot of deaf people (ranging from HH to profoundly deaf) who thoroughly enjoy music. Rock on!

I luuvvvvv listening to music, all sort. I can hear music very well with my hearing aid on but not what it singing about fully. I can pick out some chorus and some easy singing. If I want to know what it singing about, I just look up on the internet for the song lyrics and follow it.

Yay! Bring on the music!! <---- except for the headphone which I can't wear. lol

Yeah. Plus, that is how I was taught speech therapy--- through 'proper singing technique'.. it is really good, because you can keep distractible kids (such as myself) involved by varying it up.

Same here EXCEPT I can wear headphones... I can memorize music in my head by certain song that I like the most. I remember that time when I memorized Step By Step, Hangin Tough, Tonight and No More Games by NKOTB, Ice Ice Baby and Play that Funky Music by Vanilla Ice, Rico Suave by Geraldo, then Baby One More Time by Britney Spears, Bye Bye Bye by NSYNC, 98 Degrees, Backstreet Boys, Jessica Simpson and Christina Aguilera. I like pretty much almost any music that has good beats to it and something that I can dance to.

Why would music hold you back? I love music and play it at every opportunity, thank goodness I have no neighbours either side of me !!!

Use the likes of Beethoven, Evelyn Glennie etc to be your inspiration to reach your goal

I am weird...I can hear music just fine but I don't like it. I never liked music. With the radio in the car, I listen to NPR talk radio all the time. I have an iPod and I keep all my music on it but I just don't use it much.

I love music and I honestly wish I could sing good enough to be a star. I am a big fan of Darren Hayes. AWESOME voice. I did a solo once after I was caught singing 'Hold Me' on the sound system. A woman came in and said you're good, you should do a solo. So I did, I got good reviews. I need some voice lessons though. I am hoh but hey ya never know maybe American Idol should get its first deaf competitor.

I love listening to the music and feeling the beat! It is relaxing and soothing, and WILD at times. Depends on my mood on what kind of music I listen to.

I actually still enjoy the sound of the bass and the tympani. I guess my taste might not be for everyone, but I do enjoy it.

I'm a huge fan of pop/rock music from the 70's and 80's. Pre-CI when I had severe-profound hearing loss, I used to listen to music using headphones or direct audio input through my hearing aids. Although I couldn't understand song lyrics, I could still hear drumbeats or male singers depending on the amount of overlapping keyboards/instrumentals, etc. Now that I have CIs, I find myself listening to unfamiliar kinds of music as well as smooth jazz and classical. As for playing instruments, I used to play the violin, viola, piano and flute. I also used to sing in the advanced choir. This was all during the time I had moderately-severe hearing loss. Since getting my first CI in 2004 to the present I've been taking private voice lessons which I thoroughly enjoy. I can't imagine my life without music. It means everything to me.
